Ooh, you have Japanese red maple?? I was reading how the leaves extract was incredible for the skin and truly anti aging especially with turkey tail mushroom extract
After 2 doctors appointments (Mike), taping curly toes on 2 turkey babies, I finally got to watch. You may have gotten a late start, but your garden is coming along nicely. Well done! Many Blessings!
Thank you Heidi! 😊
Wow! That's a great area! I'm happy to see that you've let the carrots go to seed. 👍 This is the first year I've been able to regrow my carrot seed. So far, I haven't had the spotty germination I've had with new seed packs. They popped right up and are 4-6" tall right now.
I know that weed you were talking about.🤨 I know it as creeping Charlie or wild morning glory. That is the most tenacious, destructive weed! Years ago, I really went after it in my front yard. I thought I'd just dig it out in the beds, but the root system went down a foot and a half!
And I hadn't seen your new chickens! They're beautiful! What breed are they?
Great job, hon. It's like walking through the garden of Eden.😍
Love and blessings! 🌱🌻🌿🌼💜
Loved seeing your garden.
My carrots and radishes just didn't work with crazy pnw weather this year. Still alive but all bolting now and still nothing really formed under the soil! Try again this fall!
I found the best way to kill grass in Florida is to park your vehicle 🚗 over it!🤣🤣 The only place I’ve been successful at getting rid of it…only problem is that since I’m not driving but a few times a month, I have a critter that decided to make a home under it. Must be an armadillo…enjoy the seasons whatever they bring! God is amazing!
I planted my mints and lemon balm together. Seems to be working!
Hi Heidi great looking garden plants and flowers my garden is looking really good considering the heat we’ve been having.
I love seeing your garden tours. I have about an acre and have sometimes wished I had more land to garden and farm (animals) like I want to BUT, I realized how much I could actually do with what I have, and this is what I’ve learned as a fairly new, 2-year gardener, —work with what you have and make it your own. You have taught us all so much, Heidi, so thank you! I’m also waiting for your amazing book, one day soon hopefully. ☺️ God bless.
Did you say 1/3 acre? You’ve done all this on 1/3 of an acre? I’m having trouble just figuring out best places for my garden on one full acre! My house is very small, about 800 square feet and it sits in the middle of our property. The back yard faces East and front faces west. I’m having trouble figuring out what plants to place where. Lol! The back yard and even side yard gets full sun, but the front yard only gets afternoon sun. I know I’ll get it figured out eventually, but boy can it be frustrating! Lol! Your gardens are beautiful! Thanks for sharing with us. Blessings to you. ❤️🙏
Thanks for the tour! I am in central MS and due to HOT weather, plants are iffy…😐
💚🌞
Nice..I am getting to your enchilada vid.
I bought some lovely strawberry plants today. They were covered in strawberries and runners. We ate the strawberries for tea and I’m going to plant them in the back garden in a container similar to yours that I forgot was lurking in the summerhouse left by the previous owners. I thought I could put them in the top and let the runners drop over into the lower levels and pin in. The rest of my strawberries in my big garden were a bit pathetic this year. The wild strawberries are going crazy but they take soooooo long to pick. I’m like you I have bits all over the place as I have three gardens. It’s a strange set up you often get with old cottages in the UK.
I think that the sweet woodruff prefers lots of shade. I have it in my shade garden which gets partial shade not full shade.
Heidi, I am glad that your garden is starting to do better with all these different temperature changes. We're doing good with our garden in Missouri
Looking at your land use makes me feel like I am wasting my land. lol I can't imagine what you would do with a couple acres around your home. Enjoyed the tour of your front yard garden. Phil
Thank you for sharing your garden. I'm in SE Texas and we're in severe drought. Everything started nicely, but it's been a struggle to keep things watered and now the squirrels in this neighborhood are getting to most everything. I will not give up since I believe we need to be prepared for what's to come. God bless you and your family.
Looks very good. I love how you have incorporated pots in with it all too. I am still learning and have my basil and stevia in pots as I wasn't sure what to do with them or where to put them. I figured that if I leave the basil in the pots I can bring them in when it gets cold and still get a longer harvest season of those. The stevia, I have no idea what to do with. I need to research it because it was an impulse buy plant that I wasn't even sure would make it, but thought that I had to have it. lol. I thought I was more prepared for this year than I was and once the time to plant finally came, I was lost, so I planted a few herbs over on one side of the yard and then a few of the same herbs on the other side. I am a 2 year gardener and I just wasn't sure where things would grow the best. Well, they all seem to be doing fine, so I am rather happy about that. Thanks so much for all the updates, tips and tricks, and even the struggles on some of these things. It is very helpful to see what happens and how to fix it.
Looks so nice, Heidi!
Heidi you have a way of getting so much out of your space. I love how you teach us to use everything we have. Use it up, make it work or due without.
im sorry for the loss of your mint ive been dehydrating my mints for the past 2 days love the hat sista x
Will you make a video when you save carrot seeds? I have some in bloom that I just missed last year so I want to save seed but not sure of best practice. Thanks
Hi Heidi! This is my first year growing a lot of herbs. Found some tiny white fuzzy caterpillars on my basil, lemon balm, and sage. Do you have a problem with these? If so, what do I do? Thank you! Our family loves your channel!
Have you ever had rust on you mallow??? This is the first year I’ve had issues and I’m having trouble getting rid of it on marshmallow and hollyhocks I’m cleaning all the infected leaves off .. I even did a fungal spay … after everything else seemed to not work..
Odd year, I lost a couple rhubarb plants and none of my potatoes have flowered yet. Everything is behind.
Heidi. If you ever buy bagged soil watch
Deep South homestead! They have a video on what can be in the dirt!
😬
What a surprise that buttercup overtook the mint. I thought nothing could do that to mint. Nice tour of the front garden. Gives me a few ideas on what I can do with my little space. Thank you for sharing.
Is there a tip on getting brussel sprouts to form heads and not just small leaves above the large leaf stem? thank you
